Here is my entry for LD30. Switchboard Connection: Connecting worlds, the old fashioned way! This is my third Ludum Dare entry to date.

This is my first project ever made in Unity. I have always developed in HTML5 and Javascript. There were quite a few ups and downs, but overall the experience was great.

Play as a switchboard operator, connecting calls as they come in. When a slot flashes yellow, pickup a red plug by clicking on it. Then listen to the caller to see what number they want to be connected to. Numbers are plotted on a grid, like battleship. Then pick up another red plug and place it into the caller’s desired slot. When they flash red, you can unplug the call.

My game, How to be a Super Successful Politician, is as near as finished as I can get this weekend. I am a little dissapointed in how it turned out. I didn’t have as much time as I wanted, and motivation was lacking. But still good fun and had a blast being part of LD.

Check it out:

A bit buggy at the moment for some reason but here it is:

I am in! I was excited that I would be able to compete again after not being able to participate in the last LD. But alas, I can’t put in 100% because of The Hobbit. Stupid Hobbitses and his pocketses!

Meeting with friends and family for a get together and the movie will take a lot of “precious” dev time… see what I did there!
